More details to this question:
As a result of the misdiagnoses I have been left in pain for months which has caused further damage to my neck and upper back. I have asked for my medical records so I can change doctors but they refuse to release them. I continue to get excuses. I had another doctor look at my MRI an diagnosed my condition in about 3 seconds. He recommended a doctor that could help me but wants my records before an appointment can be made. Requested records over 10 days ago. How do I get them to release my records?

You likely need to file a complaint with the medical board or have the new doctor request records from the Nurse Practitioner.
